“In Argaric society, at the time that elite women were buried with diadems, elite men were preferentially buried with a sword and a dagger. These men were buried with fewer personal ornaments than females of the same class, and in no case did these male-associated objects have an emblematic character. As such weapons were the most effective means of enforcing political decisions, certain men would have played an executive role, even though ideological legitimation as well as —perhaps—the government, lay in certain female hands.”

speaking about bronze age iberia
this should be interesting paper

The emerging Bronze Age (BA) of southeastern Iberia saw dramatic social changes. Late Copper Age (CA) settlements were abandoned in favor of hilltop sites, and collective graves were largely replaced by single or double burials with often distinctive grave goods indirectly reflecting a hierarchical social organization, as exemplified by the BA El Argar group. We explored this transition from a genomic viewpoint by tripling the amount of data available for this period. Concomitant with the rise of El Argar starting ~2200 cal BCE, we observe a complete turnover of Y-chromosome lineages along with the arrival of Steppe-related ancestry. This pattern is consistent with a founder effect in male lineages, supported by our finding that males shared more relatives at sites than females. However, simple two-source models do not find support in some El Argar groups, suggesting additional genetic contributions from the Mediterranean that could predate the Bronze Age

p.s
the invasion of r1b along with steppe in south iberia maybe ?
 
Bam are out :)

p.s
i see 1 fell under e-v68 branch like i expected ( lets remember bell beaker iberia and chl sardinia)
but i think he was e-L618 fascinating

Is he E-V13 positive or negative? Anyone can check?

Some other would be better to check him. I will check on github for some tools anyway, it shouldn't be so hard, they probably just run the BAM file and check all these code conventions.
 
I'm more interested in what kind of earlier "Mediterranean" ancestry they're talking about. I never thought the El Argar archaeology showed the arrival of steppe people, but rather something from the eastern Mediterranean. That ancestry they hint at could be the reason, with the steppe people not building the structures but just taking them over. However, what was their yDna in that case?

i think for that we need to wait for the full paper published
about the steppe i think it came with some branches of r1b but we will wait;)

p.s
also i want to see the mtdna types some respect for the ladies

pribislav

BAS025 is L618>pre-CTS10912


CTS10912 level: PF2126/CTS1975+ G>A (2A); PF2252- G>A (5G)


All SNPs at L618 level are derived, and all SNPs at levels below CTS10912 (BY6578, Y182141 and V13) are ancestral.

I meant what was the ydna of the Eastern Mediterranean people they mention. Clearly, it was mostly wiped out, so unless we get lucky with a sample in a later paper I guess we'll never know.

I agree. There has been an evolution in situ by time, and the first signals of external input (archeology) pointed rather to Helladic cultures from around Egea sea. If some Steppe genetic input is found, I would know in what proportions; I wonder if this would not be the case of a uniquely male introgression linked to mercenaries (young males gangs spearated from the bulk of their tribes, as it occurred several times at those periods). Only a guess, it's true. It would explain for a part a dichotomy between Y haplo's and linguistic in some places of Iberia.
 
we see in this list i posted above from richard rocca
that y haplogroup H was present
maybe it has some connection to it anyway it was spread in iberia
in not shy numbers back in time maybe it is just a remmants from the neolithic farmers of iberia
and i am reading it wrong:unsure:
